An industrial robot is a system used for manufacturing. The report is a detailed overview of Global Pharmaceutical and cosmetic industrial robotsmarket 2014-2025 by End-user, application, product type and region. It is predicted that revenue of global pharmaceutical & cosmetics industrial robots markets would reach USD 492.2 million by 2025 in terms of hardware and USD 1,329.8 million in terms of the robotic system (hardware, software & service), growing at a compound annual growth rate of 10% annually over the forecasted time span from 2014-2025. Even though there is a small consumer group of industrial robots, a rapid growth of industrial robotics adoption in the pharmaceutical & cosmetics industry has been seen in recent years. There are different advantages in integrating robots into the production processes.

Increase in productivity and a decrease in the occurrence of accident at works. Industrial robots are replacing human workforce and keeping pharmaceutical & cosmetics manufacturers at ease of work. These are the major benefits achieved by the adoption of industrial robots.

The introduction of robots will help to increase capacity, reduce manufacturing costs and also reduce waste. Although the cost is high in the short term, the return on investment is highly beneficial especially as the pricing and reimbursement of drugs continue to be a problem. The Robotic Industries Association are developing safety standards which also increases the adoption of robots. These are the major driving factors for this market.
